Costa Paraiso
Get Your Toes in the Brilliant White Sands of Pristine Playa Dominicalito
Costa Paraiso, on Playa Dominicalito
Costa Paraiso sits in front of Playa Dominicalito, the small, quieter bay just south of Dominical. A rocky volcanic point runs out into the sea here, and the waves breaking on it are the sound you fall asleep to.
It suits families and couples who want a mix of surf, nature and lazy afternoons, with the beach right outside the room.
Why we choose it
- The beach outside your door. Dominicalito is calmer and less known than Dominical, and you can walk straight onto it from the hotel.
- Rooms with a kitchenette. Every room has one, which makes life easier for families with small children or anyone staying a week.
- Learn to surf here. The hotel can set you up with surf instructors who start beginners in the gentler waves of Playa Ventanas before Dominical's bigger surf.
Rooms and views
The rooms are spread down the hillside, each with its own view and design. The highest one is made for two, with a king bed, a kitchenette and a private deck. The family rooms have two queen beds and a single, a private bathroom, a kitchenette and a patio for a slow afternoon. Rooms have air conditioning, a safe, a fridge, a coffee maker and a microwave.
On the property
There is a pool and a jacuzzi, and a restaurant with beachfront views serving healthy, generous plates, a good place to watch the sun go down after a big day out. Most of the day, though, the beach and the tide pools are the real entertainment.
Location and getting there
Dominical is one of the surf towns of the Pacific coast, and the area is full of things to do. From Costa Paraiso we can arrange surf lessons, fishing trips from the rocky shore, horseback riding, canopy tours, rainforest hikes, swims under waterfalls and boat trips to the islands nearby. There is something for every member of the family. Read more about Dominical.
